------------------------(William)-------------------------

I'm currently walking towards the rooftop as class just ended.

...

I did put the letter on the right shoe locker, right?

...

Well, I hope I did. I don't want some random person to be waiting for me up there.

...

I soon reach the door that leads to the rooftop and enter to see the right person already waiting for me.

Phew, that's a relief.

Ellis: "H-Hi...!

"Hey..."

Ellis: "S-So... what did you want me to come here for...?"

I think she already knows this...

"It's about what happened at the party...!"

She suddenly comes closer and holds my hands.

Ellis: "What do you think?... Did you want to give this a try?"

"I..."

She gets closer.

"I might have just met you 2 days ago but..."

Our faces are really close to each other.

Almost to the point of kissing...

"I want to try this out... Who knows? Maybe I'll end up marrying you as well-"

I was cut off by her trying to kiss me but I block it by moving my head to the side.

"H-Hey! We haven't even dated yet..."

She blushes intensely from her actions.

Ellis: "S-Sorry! I... was just so happy! And when you mentioned getting married, I just couldn't stop myself!"

She hugs me instead.

"Let's take things slow okay?"

I held her hand a kissed it.

Ellis: "O-Okay...!"

"Alright... when would you like to hang out?"

Ellis: "If... it's possible... I want it to be every day!"

"E-Every day?..."

Ellis: "Yes! We can hang out during lunchtime or after class!"

"I'm not free all the time you know..."

It's got me thinking about Amy. I wonder how she will react. I suppose we can't hang out as much anymore.

Ellis: "I won't bother you if you don't want to hang out!..."

"I-Its fine...! I'll try to make time for you..."

Hm... I wonder how. I do have time where I hang out with people, mostly with Amy though.

Ellis: "You know..."

"Hm? What is it?"

Ellis: "You're making it really hard not kissing you..."

What-

She laughs and then kisses my cheek.

Ellis: "See you tomorrow!"

She walks away.

"..."

This once again reminds me of Amy's sudden change in attitude as well...

"Oh. Right."

I made Amy wait as well.

I then quickly walk down the stairs. Then head for the school gate.

Hm...

Weird...

That strange feeling is gone now...

As I turn the corner on the stairs I almost bump into a familiar face.

???: "Ah!"

"!"

Though, I managed to stop myself before we collided.

???: "Uh...!"

"?"

This person is...

"Amy?"

Amy: "Ah...! H-Hey! Will!..."

"What are you doing here...?"

Amy: "I was uh..."

She paused for a second.

Amy: "Looking for you! You made me wait for a while you know!..."

"Oh... Sorry."

Amy: "It's... fine."

"Well... now that you're here... Let's go."

Amy: "...Alright."

We then walk together.

...

That...

Strange feeling is back...
